Review of 'Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Buy this book to learn of the one weird trick that leads to success!, which is basically this: being a human being is not necessarily a defect in a capitalistic setting, if it serves capitalistic ends. Of course, it is filled with a fair dose of yellow-unionism advocacy with just the right level of triumphalism characteristic of the book's age.
